Ma'alot Mother Questioned after Leaving Kids in the Car

A woman in her thirties from the northern community of Ma'alot was summoned for questioning, Tuesday, after she left her children in a car with a motor running and the air conditioning on as she went to do shopping.

A passerby saw the children - ages two months, three and nine - about 20 minutes after the woman left the car and called the Magen David Adom emergency service, which relayed the information to police, who located the mother.
